i will do, thank you so much for all your help x
let us know what your test results are when you get them.
you should be feeling better soon :)
http://www.westoverheights.com/genital_herpes/handbook.html is a free resource to learn more about herpes if you get a chance to read it.
no they didnt mention anything at all about my cervix, she never said a word to me during the examination it was when the nurse came to take my blood that she mentioned there was some spotting and gave me a sanitary towel in case to examination made it worse but i havent notice anything at all
did they mention if your cervix looked red and irritated? that can cause some bleeding as well as just irritation of your vagina from infection can also cause some too.
also forgot to mention that because i have suffered form anorexia since the age of 11 (im now 23) i have really irregular periods, i am at a normal stable weight at the moment for the first time in my life but still dont get a regular cycle, they did say though that there seemed to be some blood spotting and asked if i had noticed anything which i hadnt, if this another symptom to look at?
sorry to be such a pain but everything i have looked at tells me different and i wasnt able to ask many questions today as they was very busy
well they gave me tablets for both
i had to take 5 tablets straight away for the infection and then i am on 1 tablet twice a day in case it is herpes but they never really said anything else about it
yeast and bv can both causes rashes. at this point waiting for your test results to come back is the best you can do.
did they give you vaginal treatment for the yeast and bv or pills for both?
did they also give you herpes antivirals ?
thank you for your help, i went to the clinic today and it didnt go that great
they said that i am positive for a yeast infection called bacteria vaginosis and that by looking at the lesions it is herpes, they have taken some blood and swabs and told me to go back in two weeks.
i know this sounds stupid but even though they say it looks like it could be herpes could there be a chance it is anything to do with the yeast infection?
all of a sudden my life feels completely over and i cant speak to anyone about it im just so worried about having to tell someone because i know the way i would have probably been on hearing it from someone and i do feel bad because there is worse things to happen to people but i just dont know what i am going to do any more
they wasn't particularly helpful and just gave me a leaflet and some tablets and now i am so confused she just told me to take it that i have it from what she has seen, is this right?
haha you are right it certainly is, i wont be looking for any information again it just scares you and makes you think what has happened in the pictures is going to happen to you, just cant wait to get it all sorted out, but its great to speak to you on here because i havent felt i could speak to anyone about it, especially with the way it happened
Isn't it funny how that goes?? We all can do it from time to time. Get a group of people in a room and say that one had head lice and before you know it, most will swear that their head is itchy! The power of suggestion is a strong thing :-)
aww thanks so much! i know i am not looking any more, because if i didnt have the symptoms before i had them after reading about them
thank you all so much and sorry to be a pain
Yes, there could be other causes, as Grace stated above.
Best advice is to stay off the net - good info but plenty of bad too! And, it will only feed your anxiety. Hopefully you'll get some answers soon once you're seen and examined/tested.
i will do
just so nervous everything you seem to see on the net is so scary, is there anything else tho that it could be?
stop back and let us know how it all went :)
i have one booked for monday morning because its the first available appointment
after my ex i waited a couple of weeks but we hadnt slept together for a while because he was working away
they took a blood test too and said that herpes was tested for
the best thing to do at this point is to be seen and get a proper exam done today or tomorrow. They can also test you for yeast and bacterial infections vaginally as well as gonorrhea and chlamydia.
How long after your partners did you wait for all your std testing? do you know if herpes testing was included with that testing - it typically is not?
